Captain Skvělouš

A man - a father - a superhero. Meet the world's most unassuming hero, who fights villains, saves people, and won't let children go to bed without their evening snack.

Alistair McDowall's play tells the story of Mark, an ordinary travelling salesman, who meets a woman, becomes a father to a daughter, and one day must transform into Captain Skvělouš - especially when his marriage begins to fall apart. A story full of humour and sadness that walks the edge of sentimentality without crossing it.

In a monologue brimming with invention, Karel Roden takes the stage, dressed in a shrunken cape, carrying the entire play through the force of his acting alone.
